School Reform

Zindagi Trust is a non-governmental, non-profit organization that strives to improve the quality of education.

WHY

GOVERNMENT SCHOOL REFORM

Reforming government schools is the solution to Pakistan's education crisis because:

For Most Pakistani Children,
most of the infrastructure is already present

In many Government Schools,
a Government School is the only option

Only the Government has the reach,
resources and responsibility to serve all of Pakistan's children

SCHOOL REFORM MODEL

We work to transform two government schools in Karachi into model institutions and use the success of our work there to present a blueprint for the government to replicate in other schools as well as to advocate for policy changes for better schools.

Step 1:

PILOT PROJECTS

We have adopted two government schools as pilot projects of school reform involving interventions in infrastructure upgrades, governance, administration, teacher professional development, academic innovation and tracking and a rich menu of co-curricular and extra-curricular activities.
